Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

So, there's this guy. I can't stop thinking about him. Before you try and tell me "Oh, you must have a crush, or you love him!" or something like that, no, I don't. I don't even know who the guy is. Here's my story:

I was randomly PMed by a friend of this guy. I've never met him before, either, so I was suprised when he asked: "Do you know [name removed for security reasons]? Because I think you too are related." The username had Ookami as the ending part, too, so I though That must be why he thought we were related. I'm curious. Maybe I should go look at the person's profile. So I did. We had a lot in common! That -really- suprised me! And then I noticed his journal. He seemed to have posted in it a lot. I know that it's rude to go through the journals of people that I don't know, but my couriosity got the better of me. I read all of his entries. I can't believe the kind of life that he has. For an idea of what I mean, ya know those movies with the kids that are abused? The ones of high school drop-outs that live with their abusive mother/father, and no matter how much the child tries to please the parent, they always seem to get something wrong, so the parent hits them. That's what his life is like. Reading through his journals, it seemed that he was taken away from his father for the reasons above. But after a visit to court, the judge let the father have another chance. The boy was glad to be home, yet the abusive behavior of his father continues. This guy does whatever his father tells him, and doesn't complian. He wants to make his dad happy. He hates it when people are angry at him. That's were his journal stops.

It's just like in the movies, but this boys happy ending has yet to come. I want to help him. I really do. It's none of my business, but that's just the way I am. I also don't understand how a person can live like that. Why doesn't he run away? Why does he want to live with a parent that treats him that way? You can't please everybody, no matter what you do. And his father is one of those people that don't get pleased easily, if at all. I feel really bad for him... and I wish that I could shed a tear for him, but I can't. It's selfish of me to be saying that, but it's true.
